Hi,
You can definitely change the list programtically using the
automation interface. It's pretty straightforward, actually. As long
as the backfill box is not checked, you will only be accessing the
most recent quote in an exploration (you would also have exploration
configured for last 1 quotation). However, I don't know that IB will
allow you to do that. I understand they get fussy when you try to
swap out the symbol set quickly like that. You might want to give
them a call and double-check (and please let the group know what you
find).
Meanwhile, eSignal will do this very easily. You can do all 500 on a
200 symbol plan, and Tomasz plug-in will manage clearing and
changing the symbols for you.
